    You'd think that the game's internal tracking data about the use of gear would show that the helmets are pretty darned unpopular, and that this would have an impact on the events...but no...not at all.

    Do you got access to that data and can you share it?

    I wish....

    My only evidence is anecdotal, the only player I have ever seen wearing the Usagi (rabbit) helm was one of my friends who styled himself as the Bunny Knight. Had the bunny ears from the saucer been available for guys, he would probably have used them instead. I have not seen anyone wearing any of the Heavensturn Helms during normal play other than the Bunny Knight.

    I just remember a comment from Yoshi a while back about something to do with gear, and he implied that their internal data on gear pointed in a particular direction. Even without that periodically running queries of the server side character database would allow SE to gain a pretty good understanding of the relative popularity of certain types of gear.

    It will not change until year of rabbit start again
    But nothing should stop the devs to add the helmet and an emote to the event

    There's three regions to consider; Japan, Europe and North America. Considering we get events like Yokai Watch, Garo, Super Sentai (Power Rangers for NA plebs :V) and probably something that spawned the butler and maid outfit promotions (leaning heavily toward inspiration from something like Black Butler), I somehow don't think they are as unpopular as we're being led to believe.
